Elena Rybakina‘s beautiful sister, Ann Rybakina, is one of her biggest supporters. She is often spotted cheering for her sister from the stands during her matches. Although she didn’t pursue a professional career herself in the racquet sport, her influence on Elena Rybakina’s growth as a player is enormous. Just after her exit from the 2024 Madrid Open, Elena Rybakina put up a post thanking everyone for their support. Her elder sister was seen reacting to that post and appreciated her efforts for making a solid run to the semis in that tournament.

Apart from her love for tennis, Ann Rybakina is also a digital creator on Instagram and her Instagram profile says she is photogenic and she definitely loves traveling! Recently, she posted a stunning photo of herself in the middle of a greenery. She was dressed in a rugged off-white sweater and light blue jeans. The sun’s rays through the branches of the trees in that park made her curly hair look absolutely gorgeous. She posted those photos with the caption, “Few shots from cold days.”

The relationship between the two sisters goes beyond the tennis courts. They were born in Moscow and had spent nearly most of their childhood days playing outdoor activities together. Elena Rybakina and Ann Rybakina used to do gymnastics and ice skating when they were young. Even while growing up, Elena has revealed how both of them always have something to do when they are together. Be it traveling, cooking, or just chatting with each other when they are at home.

In 2023, both the sisters were spotted visiting Universal Studios, Florida, and Universal’s Islands of Adventures in Orlando. Even during their visit to Abu Dhabi earlier this year, both Elena and Ann Rybakina were seen enjoying their time at the Ferrari World on Yas Island. They enjoyed thrill rides over there and also posed together for a few pictures for the fans. Having her elder sister’s unconditional support means a lot to the World No. 4 player!

“It’s really nice to be around her” -Elena Rybakina speaks about the biggest supporter in her family

Elena Rybakina says she’s very lucky to have someone with whom she can speak something else other than just tennis after just completing intense training sessions. She says her elder sister, Ann is very positive. “Also a lot of energy from her. So it’s just nice that we are able to spend time together. And, yeah, I think she’s also helping, especially if you have a bad day or something. She’s the one always positive. So it’s good,” the Kazakh player said of her sister.

Even during tournaments, Elena believes that having her sister on her side always gives her good results. “Every time she’s coming with me it’s always good results. It’s really nice to be around her,” Rybakina said. Reflecting more on how her sister deeply gets involved with the game during her matches, the Kazakhstani tennis star said, “Actually, when she talks to me she’s very calm, but then I see all these videos during the matches and I’m like, What were you doing? She’s very emotional and she supports me a lot.”

The bond of sisters is truly something special!
